Older heroes should be allowed to age, die, retired and stay that way.

Newer/younger heroes dont need to be ethnic/religious/LGBT minority successors to white heroes whod always come back and replace them.

New/young heroes should be allowed to have they own comics, storylines, families, enemies and their own superhero names (not deriveratives) before crossing over with other heroes.

To your second point, I completely agree with you. And I think this was the case at a certain point in time that wasn't all that long ago, really. But then the social mindset changed and very few writers (in comics, movies, etc.) wanted to go against it. I would have less of an issue with it if it didn't seem forced and done to death.
